Summary
Hernán Alperin is a mathematician and applied operations researcher with over two decades of experience applying computer science, math, and OR to web information technology and geostatistics. Based in Vicente López, Argentina, he leads R&D and data science work at INDEC’s Geostatistical System Coordination while drawing on a deep background in optimization, GIS, and recommendation systems from roles at MIT, Humboldt University, and several tech consultancies. He has built production analytics and geocoding systems, developed recommendation engines using labor-market data, and taught PostgreSQL/PostGIS and mathematical programming—bridging research-grade algorithms with practical government and industry deployments. Unusually, his career blends early hands-on systems work (from token-ring networks to web APIs) with advanced mathematical programming and a PhD-level training in operations research.
